West Bromwich Albion caretaker boss Darren Moore has been forced to leave club captain Jonny Evans out of the match-day squad for his first match in caretaker charge against Swansea at The Hawthorns this afternoon.

The Northern Irishman has picked up an injury which has made him unavailable for selection as the Swans visit.

Moore, who is also bereft of James Morrison, Sam Field, Nacer Chadli and Daniel Sturridge, has opted for a 4-4-2 formation.

The two changes to the side that lost at home to Burnley last weekend see Matt Phillips and James McClean come in for Evans and Claudio Yacob - the latter drops to the bench.

Youngsters Jonathan Leko and Rekeem Harper are also named among the substitutes, as Chris Brunt is handed the captain’s armband.
